Little panic attack causing there, dutchy! Thanks for bringing that up. I just did a real quick check and they seem to be very close. Especially after some dirtiness is added.
Looking forward to the electronics section to see everyone's setups.

My new Bucket arrived today.
It's a RS Prop Masters Sandtrooper Commision. I'm very happy with it. Now I need to add some fans, wireless mic , new lenses and a good coat of Plasti Dip.

My package has arrived from the Imperial Armor Factory! Lord Vader demands my immediate action to this task. I am told that there are rumors of a teddy bear invasion of Mos Eisley and new recruits are expected to suit up ASAP! But first a picture:
Wish me well.

UPS tells me today is Big Brown Box day! Feels like December 24th as a little kid. Every truck that drives by the house gets my attention. I swear FedEx is doing laps in the neighborhood to torment me. Standby for pictures of boxes and white plastic.

Good news everybody! My armor has shipped, should arrive on Wednesday. I'm excited to get started.

Making progress with what I have on hand. Did some weathering on my Pauldron.
And my gloves

How tall are you? If you're a tall or bigger guy, AM will have a better fit over WTF.
I'm a little short for a Stormtrooper, 5'8" and a few inches to big around the belly. Sounds like AM may be the way to go. Thanks for the input.

Ok let's try a couple of pics:

So after you guys talking about the chemical gloves being sweaty, I wore mine around the house. Kinda clammy in there. The Gorilla Grip gloves fit my hands so much better, no odd lumps and folds. I think I'll follow the lead of having both available. I'll add another set of latex hand guards to my next order.
Kirk, I have not yet ordered my armor. I have narrowed it down to a WTF Kit or an AM kit. I was very close to going with a RS Props kit, but decided to go with a less expensive option. I hope to order within the next week or two. Come on IRS pay up!
In other news, I "finished" my Rubies E11 blaster. I think it turned out pretty decent. Pics to follow.

After some research and rewatching ANH I've decided to join the DIRTY SIDE. I've been happily shopping away, and boxes are showing up and account balances are going down.
So far I purchased my Helmet from RS Props, a shoulder pauldrin and hand guards from Trooper Bay, a few pouches from here on MEPD and a neck seal from a FISD member. Pretty addictive stuff, I'm already thinking of the next project.
The question I have is which gloves should I glue my hand guards to? I have a pair of the screen accurate chemical gloves and a pair of the Gorilla Grip gloves. My thinking is that I'll use the Gorilla Gloves for my basic submission, then the chemical gloves for Police Officer deployment.
More to come.

I bought the app a little while ago. Works great for me and I really like the TD chatter.

Thanks Kirk, I'll look in to those soon.

Unreal craftsmanship and research! You have set the bar high.

I'm working on getting parts and pieces together for my TD build. Looking for input on good neckseal, any thoughts?

Hi, I'm Steve from Mill Creek Washington. My wife and I are currently working towards 501st membership in Garrison Titan. I'm currently gathering parts for a TD build. I've spent the last few days pouring over the amazing amount of info in theses forums. Thank you all for sharing your tips and insights.
